Last Exit In New Jersey - A 'Jersey-Noir' Mystery
Update - 12/29/10: Mysteries for Mutts - Fundraiser for the NJSPCA... See the most recent posts or check out http://www.cegrundler.com/works.htm for more details.
Nice young ladies from the Garden State really shouldn’t be dumping bodies at sea. Then again, 20 year-old Hazel Moran is anything but your typical Jersey girl. Raised aboard a schooner and riding shotgun beside her father in their old tractor-trailer truck, there's little on the road or water that she can't handle; it's her people skills that need work. Normally that isn’t an issue – behind the wheel of a Kenworth most people tend to leave her alone. But when Hazel and her father become the targets of some unsavory characters hunting for her blue-haired cousin, their stolen tractor-trailer truck and a delivery that never arrived, she knows it's time to heed the lessons learned from her favorite hardboiled paperbacks: playing nice will only end in tears. For ten sweltering days Hazel navigates the Garden State's highways and shorelines, contending with a suspiciously wealthy stranger, white trash, Born Agains, appliance salesmen, an unstable stalker and his curiously troublesome companion. It'll take all her ingenuity, not to mention some fishing tackle and high voltage, if Hazel hopes to protect her family and unravel this tangle of greed and betrayal. And anyone who gets too close, no matter their intent, will discover just how dangerous shy little Hazel truly can be as she sets in motion a twisted plan to uncover the truth, settle some scores, and if possible not wind up dead in the process. Somewhat hard-boiled, slightly noir, Last Exit in New Jersey is an offbeat tale that travels from a Delaware Bay ghost-town to metropolitan north Jersey, where boats and big rigs set the scene for danger, suspense, dark humor and an unlikely bit of romance. A 5-Star Review from Red Adept! http://www.amazon.com/Last-Exit-New-...sr=8-2-catcorr Last edited by cegrundler; 12-29-2010 at 08:25 PM. Reason: Review update! |

I would love to read this, but I don't own a Kindle. Any chance you'll put the book on Smashwords or Barnes & Noble for us Nook folks?

I'm actually looking into Smashwords right now. Each one of these platforms is a whole new realm for me, there's so much to learn. I'll be posting announcements here and on my blog over the coming weeks.

MYSTERIES FOR MUTTS - A Fundraiser for Animals in Need
Hi everyone!
I'm asking animal lovers and mystery readers to come together in raising money for a worthwhile cause -- to benefit New Jersey's abandoned, abused and neglected animals. I'm pledging for each copy of Last Exit In New Jersey sold from December 1, 2010 through January 31, $1.00 will be donated to the New Jersey Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (www.njspca.org). The NJSPCA, a non-profit organization, receives no government aid or tax dollars. It is funded solely by donations, grants, bequests and fines levied. My goal is to raise not only funds, but public awareness for the NJSPCA as they aid the welfare of animals throughout the state. Donations can also be made directly to the NJSPCA through their website: www.njspca.org Priced at $2.99, Last Exit In New Jersey has met with glowing reviews, including 5 Stars from Red Adept, and has been described as fast, well written, entertaining and a shining example of what self-published can and should be. Check it out at http://www.cegrundler.com/works.htm – if it sounds like something you'd enjoy, grab a copy; you’ll get a great read AND you’ll help protect animals from abuse, cruelty and neglect. |
